Chapter 21



Although Chu Fangan did not choose Zhong Yi, he passed his good luck to him.

"The center position of the theme song, trainee Chu Fangan, please step out." After the "Answer" group was full, Yu Ren called Chu Fangan's name again.

Chu Fangan still walked out with a confused look on his face. Two staff members carried a table in front of him. On the table was a cardboard box with the orange logo of the program team.

"Now you can exercise your center privilege. The second part is to decide who will be the next person to choose a song." Yu Ren said, "The cardboard box in front of you contains the name tags of all the trainees. Whoever you draw can start choosing a song."

The trainees who were not selected were extremely envious: "Wow!"

It feels so good to control other people's destiny.

Zhong Yi was flirting with Chu Fangan from the opposite side: "Brother! Choose me! Choose me!"

Tong Juan was amused by Zhong Yi's expression and whispered to Pei Siran, "Isn't Zhong Yi afraid of being made into an emoticon?"

"He also uses his own emoticons." Pei Siran said, "If you think it's funny, I'll send you a few when I get a cell phone."

"Okay!" Tong Juan nodded happily, then suddenly realized something was wrong, "We haven't added WeChat yet, right?"

Pei Siran achieved his goal and smiled slightly: "I'll add more when the time comes."

Pu Hezhou, who was standing next to him, couldn't bear to watch it at all. He wanted to grab Pei Siran's shoulders and ask him, "Are you doing this to your good brother Zhong Yi?"

"Is this possible?" Chu Fangan rubbed his hands, "Then I have to choose carefully."

Chu Fangan pretended he couldn't hear Zhong Yi calling him, and searched the box for a long time with great concentration. Finally, he picked out a lot that he thought was good, and when he held it up, he saw: Zhong Yi.

Chu Fangan’s smile froze.

Yu Ren walked over to take a look, and said with some gloating: "Let's congratulate Zhong Yi!"

"Me???" Zhong Yi pointed at himself in disbelief. Was he so lucky that he was chosen just because he shouted a few words casually?

"Brother An!" Zhong Yi rushed over and hugged Chu Fangan, "You are so good to me. From now on, you are my real brother!"

Chu Fangan was so disgusted that he gave up on controlling his facial expression. His mouth was so wide open that one could see his back teeth. He desperately pushed Zhong Yi with both arms, "Let me go!"

Tong Juan, who was standing nearby, also gloated and began to applaud happily, but he only moved his two hands, like a seal, which was so cute that Pei Siran also laughed.

Sun Ledi was also very satisfied: You are making trouble and he is laughing, that’s great!

Chu Fangan broke free from Zhong Yi and returned to his seat.

"Which one will he choose?" Tong Juan asked in a low voice when he saw Chu Fangan coming back.

"He will probably go to the 'Hello Sister' group. He likes that kind of thing." Chu Fangan replied in a low voice.

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhong Yi stood under the vocal group's "Hello Sister" and interacted with the trainees opposite: "Friends who like this song, can you let me see your hands?"

The trainees raised their hands and cheered, and the song selection scene immediately turned into an interactive session for commercial performances.

After Zhong Yi selected four members he was satisfied with, he also drew lots. However, he did not take as long to choose as Chu Fangan did. Instead, he reached in and picked one at random. It came out in less than two seconds. "Jin Boyu, please come over."

Tong Juan had only seen Jin Boyu once on the first stage, and he didn't seem to have seen him much during the theme song practice afterwards. He vaguely remembered that he was standing behind him during the voting. There were 30 trainees in total, and they were all in the dormitory or company activities. Tong Juan and Jin Boyu had no intersection at all, so it was normal that he didn't leave any impression for a while.

Tong Juan was sick and his mind was a mess. He probably even forgot whether Jin Boyu was a vocal or a rapper.

After walking out of the crowd, Jin Boyu stood directly under "Return" next to "Answer". His look today exposed his forehead, looking tough and handsome. Tong Juan, who is obsessed with looks, couldn't help but take a few more glances at him.

"Are there any friends who like "Return"? " asked Jin Boyu.

If it was another group, seeing that the other team had four people from Class A, they might have to think for a long time. But "Return" is a rap song, and there is nothing special about this group of idolrappers, they just like to fight hard, so when Jin Boyu asked, many people raised their hands.

Jin Boyu quickly selected the other four people, and the rap group was full first.

The ten rap guys stood there like a group of male models.

Although Tong Juan looked thin and small, he didn't look much shorter than the others when he stood under the "answer" sign. It wasn't that he was short, it was that Pei Siran and Chu Fangan were too tall. Tong Juan was 179cm tall, and 180+cm tall with shoes on, but Pei Siran and Chu Fangan were even taller, one was 181cm tall and the other was 185cm tall, and when they put on shoes, they looked like two giants standing next to Tong Juan.

The others were not short either, and they all wore the same smoky grey school uniform, which made them look more like they were taking a photo for a school uniform magazine.

The five members of the equally full "Hello Sister" group next door were amazed and said, "Is this the crushing of momentum?"

Thanks to the fast selection speed of the first three groups, the speed of the next three groups was also very fast, and all six groups were selected in less than an hour.

Yu Ren was very happy to get off work early today. He smiled more sincerely while holding the cue card. "Congratulations to everyone for choosing their favorite songs. I hope everyone can keep working hard in the next training and not leave any regrets in their youth."

After the song selection, the trainees returned to the dormitory to change clothes, and then went to the practice rooms of their respective groups. While they were selecting songs, the staff had already reorganized the practice rooms, removed the labels of Class ABCD, and pasted the names of the songs of each group.

The practice room of the "Answer" group is still the original practice room of Class A. The four Class A trainees are as familiar as if they have returned to their mother's home. They sit directly on the floor and pull Sun Ledi to discuss the candidates for the captain and the C position.

Fortunately, the system did not give him any tasks this time, so Tong Juan felt relieved and started discussing with others.

Among the five people in this group, except Tong Juan, all of them are professional rappers. Tong Juan is also very self-aware and did not fight for the center position.

"Let An Ge be the captain, after all, he was the one who chose us." Pu Hezhou suggested.

Naturally, no one else had any objections, so Chu Fangan put the L sticker on his clothes. As the new captain, he naturally presided over the C position election, "Who wants to be the C position? Don't be shy, just say it directly."

Among the four people, except Tong Juan and Sun Ledi, all others raised their hands.

"Then both of you perform your part as center, and then the three of us will vote." Chu Fangan said.

Pei Siran looked at Pu Hezhou: "Who will go first?"

Pu Hezhou made a gesture of invitation.

"Then let me go first." Pei Siran straightened his clothes, picked up the lyrics and started to perform.

Pei Siran's voice is quite magnetic, and when he raps, he can be described as crazy and cool. He occasionally flicks his tongue and speeds up, rapping like a machine gun. His eyes are nonchalant and his hands are extremely powerful. He is very different from the Pei Siran who was almost smiling like a flower in the theme song. Pei Siran at this time has his own attraction, specifically attracting people like Tong Juan who are obsessed with looks and have not seen much of the world.

"Great, great." After Pei Siran finished his performance, Tong Juan clapped like a seal.

Pu Hezhou couldn't help but sigh. He felt as if he had dug a big hole for himself. How could he respond to Pei Siran's performance? However, it had come to this point, so he could only bite the bullet and continue to perform.

Pei Siran had been a trainee overseas for several years after all, and the cruel elimination mechanism there was not as comfortable as in China. Pu Hezhou was good in every aspect, except that he lacked the momentum compared to Pei Siran.

So among the three people, Chu Fangan and Tong Juan both voted for Pei Siran, and only Sun Ledi voted for Pu Hezhou.

"Then congratulations to Xiao Pei." Chu Fangan said, and picked up the sticker in the C position and put it on Pei Siran.

Sun Ledi and Tong Juan clapped their hands, and the others followed suit. Amid the sparse applause, Chu Fangan said, "Now let's divide our parts."

Although "Answer" is named in English, it is actually a rap song with a more Chinese style. In addition to rapper 1234, there is also a vocalist responsible for the opera tune and harmony.

"Then let this be given to Juanjuan, okay?" Chu Fangan asked. He knew that there was something wrong with Tong Juan's voice, but although the others could also sing this opera tune, it would be fatal.

“Sure.” Tong Juan nodded. He didn’t expect that even though he joined the rap group, he still couldn’t escape the fate of being a vocalist.

Rapper 1 is the center position, and the remaining 2, 3, and 4 parts are almost the same, and are divided among the remaining three people using rock-paper-scissors.

Sun Ledi is the one with good rap skills in Class B, but after coming to the "Answer" group, he met Pei Siran and Tong Juan, two practice maniacs. While suffering inhuman torture, his own strength also steadily increased like a rocket.

The five people practiced happily (desperately) and joyfully (hopelessly) every day, and Tong's tired vocal cords were gradually recovering, until one day a staff member came and knocked on their door.

"Did we disturb your practice?" The staff member poked his head out from the crack in the door.

The five people quickly shook their heads and waved their hands: "No."

"Our first show will be aired this Saturday, and the production team has prepared a surprise Easter egg. We need you to record a reaction to the show. Today it's your turn for the Answer team." The staff member briefly explained the purpose of their visit, "So follow me now."

"Okay, okay."

The five people followed the staff to a meeting room not far away. The conference table was placed against the wall with a large TV on it. Opposite it was a row of five chairs with snacks on the seats.

"Just sit wherever you want." The staff member said while fixing the TV.

Tong Juan was originally walking at the back, but the four people in front tacitly left the center position in the middle for him. Tong Juan walked over and sat down, holding a large bag of potato chips in his arms.

Pei Siran was sitting on the left side of Tong Juan. When he saw him tear open the bag of potato chips, he reached out and said, "Give me a bite."

Tong Juan pointed the seal towards Pei Siran and asked in a low voice: "Will we be photographed now too?"

"Yes, otherwise how can I react?" Pei Siran ate a potato chip, "There is a camera in front of you, Juanjuan, your ability to capture the camera is still not good enough."

Tong Juan followed Pei Siran's gaze and saw a camera above the TV.

Uh. He really didn't notice.

At this time, the staff had already set up the TV. After the familiar Pumpkin Video opening ended, Yu Ren's face appeared. After Yu Ren read a letter titled "To the Trainees", the screen blurred for a moment, and the "one sixth" logo appeared, with a line of small words below, also known as "One Sixth of Luck".

Chu Fangan took a sip of Yakult and said, "Friends, the main movie is about to begin."
